Eligibility Criteria | Chevening Scholarship 2023/24
Your gender, age (there is no upper age limit), sexual orientation, religion, marriage or parenthood status, caste, class, or other attributes do not matter to us.

General eligibility may include;
- Applicants must be a citizen of a Chevening-eligible country applying to study at any UK university for the 2023/24 academic session.
